Kote hineri (wrist twist) is a Japanese Jujutsu and Tomiki Aikido technique. Tori first slides back and to the left to avoid the stab. As he does so, he uses his right hand to grab the attacker’s stabbing hand. He twists the hand up and counter clockwise. Doing so locks out the wrist joint and forces the attacker’s arm to twist.
With a little more pressure, and help from his left hand, Nariyama causes this twist to carry on to the attacker’s torso. The attacker is easily pushed down, with the wrist lock being maintained all the way down to the ground. If the right hand is twisted and lifted using the left hand this becomes tenkai kote hineri.
